Chords

[Intro] F F Dm C Bb [Verse 1]
         F
You were born on your feet

                   Dm     C          Bb
With the stem of a rose between your teeth

C
From a cloud of golden air

          Bb
Where the sky meets the city streets

         F
You were already wise

                  Dm     C       Bb
To a world that's bitter as it's sweet

C
With both kinds of magic

    Bb
And God never gets his sleep
[Chorus]
                 F
Now darlin' hold on

I am far, but I'm not gone

Hold on
[Verse 2]
F
Some stars, they don't shine as long as others

Dm        C         Bb
They just slide and slip away

C
Sun goes down and tomorrow

Bb
Doesn't call their names

F
Light as a feather, white as snow

Dm      C     Bb
Like lanterns off they go

C
As if whoever brought thеm here

Bb
Has come to takе 'em home
[Chorus]

[Bridge]
C                                           Dm
Abandoned and locked out and pressed to the fire

     Bb                                             A
Been tricked into thinking you're the one that's on trial

                Bb                             F   C
A-backed into a corner, you've been hung up to dry

          Bb                             C
If you're there (If you're there), so am I (Oh-oh)
[Chorus]
             F
Darlin' hold on

     Bb              C
I am far but I'm not gone

     F
Hold on

     Bb               C
I am always where you are
[Post-Chorus]
F
There in the whistle of a passing train

Bb
On down whichever road you take

F
There in the water staring back

         Bb                      C
When you kneel down and see your face
[Chorus]
                 F
Now darlin' hold on

     Bb               C
I am far, but I'm not gone

     F
Hold on

     Bb               C
I am always where you are

     F
Hold on

     Bb               C
I am far, but I'm not gone

     F
Hold on
